Life can become challenging at times and individuals survive by searching for meaning and purpose in their lives. I work with Couples, individual adults, and adolescents. I believe that meaning in our lives come from 3 primary sources; Love for others and self, purposeful work and finally, courage when difficulties arise. I believe addiction , aggression, and depression is the by-product of the lack of understanding of the purpose in our lives.

Sometimes life can feel overwhelming. The troubles in our relationships can feel impossible to overcome. As a result feelings of depression, anger, and anxiety often occur. As a Marriage and Family Therapist I have helped many people overcome these debilitating emotions, improve their relationships, and move on to lead lives that are more fulfilling. My specialties include working with families, couples and individuals who have been impacted by addiction , childhood trauma, grief and loss, and change of life issues.

"We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us." - Joseph Campbell. It's an honor to journey with you towards a better life.

I like helping people find contentment and happiness in their lives. I believe it is important to understand one's self and one's personal values and to make choices that are positive and life-affirming. I have had extensive experience working with people having experienced trauma and loss, relationship problems, and who have substance abuse problems. Creative people are also one of my specializations. My training is primarily psycho-dynamic along with cognitive-behavioral orientation. I believe mindfulness, spirituality and forgiveness are ways of helping alter patterns of behavior that can keep us stuck in our lives.

Moving through these difficulties is hard enough as it is, so why not have someone to help you through the process?

I believe in therapeutic conversation; I am not the 'expert' on your life; you are that expert. My expertise lies in facilitating dialogue that looks at the obstacles currently blocking your preferred vision for your current and future self. My ultimate quarry is change: not just the hoped for differences you may want from your partner, your job, your family, but the changes from within that you must incorporate. The old adage really is true: you can only change yourself. Truly effective therapy happens when you are honestly ready to tackle the person in the mirror.

Before I came to America I worked with soccer teams helping their players deal with anxiety, something I still do. Twice per year I return to England so therefore clients who are relatively independent and not in crisis are the best suited to working with me. Consequently, I do have a network of excellent support therapists who work with some of my clients while I am away. Many of my current clients are not sports people, they often have to cope with big work and home pressures. I try to help them locate their inner resources while maintaining a supportive stance throughout our meeting.

I work with the human psyche! WHETHER LIFE IS ON FIRE OR WHEN PAIN IS TOO STRONG TO BEAR OR IF YOU LOOK FOR PERSONAL DISCOVERY. My ideal client comes in in order to learn about how to tune with his or her psyche. Clients, in depth work, learn about the inner and outer relationships and how to connect with the things that lies underneath. I see clients who are looking for discovery of what exists beyond the behavior and their actions and who are willing to dive into learning about the forces that drive them.

Emotional pain and mental challenges can overwhelm us and keep us from reaching our goals. In these times it is often necessary to seek professional assistance to move us past the ruts in our lives. I work best with people who have had difficulty with relating to their emotions, resolving past suffering, spiritual abuse, chronic illness, somatic issues, finding meaning, and navigating life transitions. My approach to therapy is specific to each person, and stands on the biblical teachings of Jesus Christ, healing the heart and spirit that are so important to Him.
